Raag Siree Raag, First Mehla, First House:
ਮੋਤੀ ਤ ਮੰਦਰ ਊਸਰਹਿ ਰਤਨੀ ਤ ਹੋਹਿ ਜੜਾਉ ॥
motee ta ma(n)dhar uoosareh ratanee ta hoh jaRaau ||
If I had a palace made of pearls, inlaid with jewels,
ਕਸਤੂਰਿ ਕੁੰਗੂ ਅਗਰਿ ਚੰਦਨਿ ਲੀਪਿ ਆਵੈ ਚਾਉ ॥
kasatoor ku(n)goo agar cha(n)dhan leep aavai chaau ||
scented with musk, saffron and sandalwood, a sheer delight to behold
ਮਤੁ ਦੇਖਿ ਭੂਲਾ ਵੀਸਰੈ ਤੇਰਾ ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ਨਾਉ ॥੧॥
mat dhekh bhoolaa veesarai teraa chit na aavai naau ||1||
-seeing this, I might go astray and forget You, and Your Name would not enter into my mind. ||1||
ਹਰਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਜੀਉ ਜਲਿ ਬਲਿ ਜਾਉ ॥
har bin jeeau jal bal jaau ||
Without the Lord, my soul is scorched and burnt.

I consulted my Guru, and now I see that there is no other place at all. ||1||Pause||
ਧਰਤੀ ਤ ਹੀਰੇ ਲਾਲ ਜੜਤੀ ਪਲਘਿ ਲਾਲ ਜੜਾਉ ॥
dharatee ta heere laal jaRatee palagh laal jaRaau ||
If the floor of this palace was a mosaic of diamonds and rubies, and if my bed was encased with rubies,
ਮੋਹਣੀ ਮੁਖਿ ਮਣੀ ਸੋਹੈ ਕਰੇ ਰੰਗਿ ਪਸਾਉ ॥
mohanee mukh manee sohai kare ra(n)g pasaau ||
and if heavenly beauties, their faces adorned with emeralds, tried to entice me with sensual gestures of love

mat dhekh bhoolaa veesarai teraa chit na aavai naau ||2||
-seeing these, I might go astray and forget You, and Your Name would not enter into my mind. ||2||

If I were to become a Siddha, and work miracles, summon wealth
ਗੁਪਤੁ ਪਰਗਟੁ ਹੋਇ ਬੈਸਾ ਲੋਕੁ ਰਾਖੈ ਭਾਉ ॥
gupat paragaT hoi baisaa lok raakhai bhaau ||
and become invisible and visible at will, so that people would hold me in awe

If I were to become an emperor and raise a huge army, and sit on a throne,
ਹੁਕਮੁ ਹਾਸਲੁ ਕਰੀ ਬੈਠਾ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਸਭ ਵਾਉ ॥

issuing commands and collecting taxes-O Nanak, all of this could pass away like a puff of wind.

Siree Raag, First Mehla:
ਕੋਟਿ ਕੋਟੀ ਮੇਰੀ ਆਰਜਾ ਪਵਣੁ ਪੀਅਣੁ ਅਪਿਆਉ ॥
koT koTee meree aarajaa pavan peean apiaau ||
If I could live for millions and millions of years, and if the air was my food and drink,
ਚੰਦੁ ਸੂਰਜੁ ਦੁਇ ਗੁਫੈ ਨ ਦੇਖਾ ਸੁਪਨੈ ਸਉਣ ਨ ਥਾਉ ॥
cha(n)dh sooraj dhui gufai na dhekhaa supanai saun na thaau ||
and if I lived in a cave and never saw either the sun or the moon, and if I never slept, even in dreams
ਭੀ ਤੇਰੀ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਨਾ ਪਵੈ ਹਉ ਕੇਵਡੁ ਆਖਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੧॥
bhee teree keemat naa pavai hau kevadd aakhaa naau ||1||
-even so, I could not estimate Your Value. How can I describe the Greatness of Your Name? ||1||
ਸਾਚਾ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰੁ ਨਿਜ ਥਾਇ ॥
saachaa nira(n)kaar nij thai ||
The True Lord, the Formless One, is Himself in His Own Place.
ਸੁਣਿ ਸੁਣਿ ਆਖਣੁ ਆਖਣਾ ਜੇ ਭਾਵੈ ਕਰੇ ਤਮਾਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
sun sun aakhan aakhanaa je bhaavai kare tamai ||1|| rahaau ||
I have heard, over and over again, and so I tell the tale; as it pleases You, Lord, please instill within me the yearning for You. ||1||Pause||
ਕੁਸਾ ਕਟੀਆ ਵਾਰ ਵਾਰ ਪੀਸਣਿ ਪੀਸਾ ਪਾਇ ॥
kusaa kaTeeaa vaar vaar peesan peesaa pai ||
If I was slashed and cut into pieces, over and over again, and put into the mill and ground into flour,
ਅਗੀ ਸੇਤੀ ਜਾਲੀਆ ਭਸਮ ਸੇਤੀ ਰਲਿ ਜਾਉ ॥
agee setee jaaleeaa bhasam setee ral jaau ||
burnt by fire and mixed with ashes
ਭੀ ਤੇਰੀ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਨਾ ਪਵੈ ਹਉ ਕੇਵਡੁ ਆਖਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੨॥
bhee teree keemat naa pavai hau kevadd aakhaa naau ||2||
-even then, I could not estimate Your Value. How can I describe the Greatness of Your Name? ||2||
ਪੰਖੀ ਹੋਇ ਕੈ ਜੇ ਭਵਾ ਸੈ ਅਸਮਾਨੀ ਜਾਉ ॥
pa(n)khee hoi kai je bhavaa sai asamaanee jaau ||
If I was a bird, soaring and flying through hundreds of heavens,
ਨਦਰੀ ਕਿਸੈ ਨ ਆਵਊ ਨਾ ਕਿਛੁ ਪੀਆ ਨ ਖਾਉ ॥
nadharee kisai na aavuoo naa kichh peeaa na khaau ||
and if I was invisible, neither eating nor drinking anything
ਭੀ ਤੇਰੀ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਨਾ ਪਵੈ ਹਉ ਕੇਵਡੁ ਆਖਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੩॥
bhee teree keemat naa pavai hau kevadd aakhaa naau ||3||
-even so, I could not estimate Your Value. How can I describe the Greatness of Your Name? ||3||
